About this product
Transcriptions occupied Ferruccio Busoni from early in his career, but his famously Romantic version of the Chaconne in D minor contrasts with the later and more austere Sonatina brevis based on Bach's Fantasy and Fugue in D minor, BWV 905. Music from Bach's The Art of Fugue is invoked in the rarely heard Edizione minore version of the Fantasia contrappuntistica, and the Ten Chorale Preludes include the glorious Wachet auf, ruft uns die Stimme. Sir Edward Elgar considered Busoni 'the greatest musical mind of his time,' and Wolf Harden's playing of Busoni has been described as 'the clear current benchmark' (BBC Music Magazine)

![Sami Junnonen - Ibert, Jolivet & Rodrigo: Flute Concertos - COMPACT DISCS [CD]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/9dfdf70a-c765-4229-9049-aa2011a765a2.jpg;maxHeight=422;maxWidth=264?format=webp)
The flute concertos by Jacques Ibert, Andre Jolivet and Joaquin Rodrigo together embody a distinctive musical heritage written for the flute in the twentieth century, exploring the instrument's limits. These works are now heard together for the first time on one album. Flautist Sami Junnonen is joined by the Helsinki Chamber Orchestra under the direction of conductor James S. Kahane. The album features Ibert's 'Concerto for flute and orchestra', which is now considered to be one of the most esteemed concertos in the flute repertoire; Jolivet's virtuosic and rarely-recorded 'Concerto for flute and string orchestra'; and Rodrigo's 'Concierto pastoral for flute and orchestra', which has gained a formidable reputation among flautists for it's exceptional technical requirements.
